Seeing Chu Chen's good mood, Han Rui couldn't help asking in doubt, "What is it?"

Chu Chen brought the wooden box in front of Han Rui, put his hand on the wooden box, and said, "Open it and have a look. This box has been kept there since I got it back. I don't know what's inside."

Hearing this, Han Rui realized that the familiar exquisite wooden box in his hand was the one brought back from Sanfang Village, which was what Lin Peng exchanged for Chu Chen as a substitute.

Remembering that Chu Chen said that he would give him something to replace the previous jadeite finger, Han Rui nodded. He understood the purpose of Chu Chen asking him to open the box, so he didn't say anything, and touched the lock of the wooden box with his fingers. Buckle, and gently lift the lid off.

Because the wooden box has been placed on the table for a long time, a thin layer of dust has fallen on the surface, but this does not affect the contents of the box at all.

"Is this a jade pendant?" Han Rui looked at the white jade lying quietly in the soft silk cloth, saw the words "Children of Changyi" engraved on it, and said in a low voice, "It looks good."

Chu Chen on the side was a little surprised when he saw the jade pendant. He didn't expect Lin Peng to exchange such a valuable thing, which showed that the other party did realize the importance of the book.

Taking the almost flawless white jade pendant from Han Rui, Chu Chen raised the corners of his mouth and said, "This is the Chang Yi descendant pendant made during the Qianlong period in imitation of the Han Dynasty. Long means long-term and long-lasting. Yi, a gentleman." It should be known that descendants and grandchildren will last forever.”

After finishing speaking, Chu Chen looked at the inscriptions of "Qianlong Annual System" and "Bizi 130 No. [-]" on both sides of the jade pendant, and saw that the jade pendant was carved with the best suet white jade, and couldn't help sighing: "Emperor Qianlong thinks that' Playthings should keep the old feelings of teachers, so at that time, all parts of the inner court paid great attention to antiques. This piece of Changyi Zisun Pei is an imitation of the shape and decoration of the Han Dynasty. Looking at the serial number, it is estimated that there are more than [-] pieces of the same kind of jade. The piece should be one of the parts that were scattered outside the palace at that time. I didn’t expect that kid Lin Peng to be so generous. He exchanged this thing for that book, and this piece of Changyi descendant Peike is much more valuable than that Doucai porcelain cup.”

During the Qianlong period, court jade materials were generally tributed from the Hotan area of ​​Xinjiang, among which suet white jade was the superior material.The suet jade is delicate, moist, elegant and pure, and it is matched with the blueprint of Changyi's descendant Sun Pei in the Han Dynasty. The craftsmanship is more exquisite and luxurious, which is a typical antique style of Qianlong in the Qing Dynasty.

With this jade pendant, Chu Chen suddenly felt that the previous hard work had paid off, and the trip to Sanfang Village was not in vain.

Putting Changyi's son Sun Pei back into the wooden box, Chu Chen moved close to Han Rui's ear, and said in an ambiguous tone, "Put it away, this is a token of love I gave you."

Han Rui was startled, ignored Chu Chen's teasing, found a paper towel on the coffee table, wiped the wooden box carefully, and walked out of the room first.

Taking Han Rui's car to Guiqiu Hall, Chu Chen was called away by the foreman manager as soon as he got off the car, saying that a big client came to appraise the baby early in the morning, and he asked Chu Chen to go by name, and he was already in the living room Waited for a long time.

Chu Chen, who originally wanted to accompany Han Rui to organize things in the office, had no choice but to let Han Rui take a look around first, and he would come over later.

After Chu Chen left, the manager of the foreman saw Han Rui sitting at the desk in a daze, so he went over to him and said, "Second Young Master, you can take a look at this plan first." She handed over a stack of documents on the desk to Han Rui , continued: "This is a special plan prepared for the New Year's Day auction. At that time, several craftsmen will bring things. It is said that they are treasures of inestimable value. The specific content is all in this document."

"New Year's Day?" Han Rui took the information, thought for a while and said, "The craftsman...is that?"

Nodding his head, the manager whispered, "It's the tomb robbers. The young master said that they are not easy to mess with. Let's make preparations early to make them comfortable and try not to cause trouble."

"Understood." Han Rui nodded slightly, looked at the information in his hand, and suddenly thought that Christmas is before New Year's Day, and it will be here soon. Do you want to give Chu Chen a gift then?

Noticing that Han Rui was staring at the information, as if he had fallen into deep thought, the foreman quietly retreated out and closed the door behind him.

Guiqiutang will hold a special auction every New Year's Day. At that time, giants from all over the world will come to join in, and the auction items are the best items preserved by craftsmen during the year.Some craftsmen even find a few treasures specially for this auction, just waiting to sell them for a good price at the auction.

The craftsmen, of course, refer to those tomb robbers who go to the ground to hunt for treasure. Tomb robbers and antique trading have been an assembly line since ancient times. Only those who steal can be sold, and only those who have sold can be bought. They earn the most basic income, but in the eyes of antique dealers, they are the treasures of this business. Without tomb robbers, Gui Qiutang's income this year would be at least half less.

In the eyes of tomb robbers, antique masters like Han Wenqing are just a port for selling treasures. Those guys who have been active underground all year round have seen far more things than antique dealers sitting in the shop drinking tea and appraising treasures. Much more.Some of them are so mysterious that almost no one knows how they got those incredible objects.

After a cursory look at the contents of the information, Han Rui frowned, and found that there were many things in it that he had never seen before, or even unheard of.

For a moment, Han Rui even wondered whether these things really existed. Some of them felt extremely weird just by looking at the names, and they were not at all like the antiques he usually saw.

But thinking of the King Yu tripod that was lost before, Han Rui felt that it was nothing. After all, the dragon and fox tied to the King Yu tripod were not something ordinary people could see.

Just as he was thinking, there was a sudden knock on the door outside, Han Rui came back to his senses, straightened his face and said, "Come in."

The visitor pushed open the door and half exposed his body. Seeing Han Rui sitting inside alone, he walked in with a smile and said, "Hey, Young Master Han, you are finally back."

"Why, miss me?" Han Rui heaved a sigh of relief when he found out that it was Liu Xin who came, changed his seriousness just now, raised his legs and played with the lighter and said, "Did you learn some seriousness from Old Zheng these days?"

"Hey, that's what I said." Liu Xin sat down on the sofa next to him consciously, and sighed: "I'm not going to learn serious things with Master, it doesn't mean that the New Year's Day auction is coming soon, and Master is hurrying up to train me , I’m afraid I’ll make a fool of him when the time comes.”

Han Rui raised the corner of his mouth and looked at Liu Xin, turned the lighter twice in his hand, and said, "I also just saw the information on the auction, it seems that this time is more interesting than the previous one."

"It's more than worth seeing." Liu Xin said, glanced at the door, trotted over to close the door, and then returned to his original seat to sit down, and continued: "I heard from Master that the few people who came this year are the youngest in that line. Awesome characters, let alone us, even if the sixth sea wolf came, they would have to give them a laugh. Now they are the only ones who are not afraid of these forces on the Tao. Master also said that those people have been following with Dealing with dead people is extraordinary, even holding a gun may not kill them, let me be careful not to mess with anyone, or I will bear the consequences."

Hearing this, Han Rui raised his eyebrows and said, "It's true or not, maybe it's Lao Zheng who frightened you, it's just a group of tomb robbers."

"I'm also surprised." Liu Xin nodded and said: "There is no one who is not afraid of guns, maybe Master is really scaring me... Sigh, let's not talk about this, let's go to Dongjie tonight? Please, my brother, How about treating Young Master Han as a cleanse?"

"To the East Street?" Han Rui thought for a while, then threw away the lighter in his hand and said cheerfully: "Okay, you go back first, I will find you before seven o'clock."

"OK." Seeing Han Rui's agreement, Liu Xin narrowed his eyes with a smile, jumped up and ran out. Before going to East Street, he had to finish the task assigned by his master first.

Near the end of the year, it was the busiest time for Gui Qiutang. Han Rui also had to do his best. He sat in the office all day looking at the materials, and then sorted out what was needed or had doubts, and then handed it over to the foreman manager for resolution.

The New Year's Day auction is very important to the Guiqiu Hall. Someone needs to sort out who is sitting where and what kind of tea to drink, and finally arranges for people everywhere in the hall.

Han Rui had never done such a job before, so he felt quite a headache. Fortunately, the foreman manager was by his side to give him some advice, so he managed to sort out a reasonable arrangement.

The managers of Gui Qiutang are veterans who have worked in the hall for several years and are very experienced in these matters. Before handing Gui Qiutang to Han Rui, Han Wenqing specifically asked them to teach Han Rui hand in hand. No, and can't mess things up.

Chu Chen was also surprisingly busy that day. It seemed that all the work had been piled up until today. Until Han Rui went to find Liu Xin, he was still not freed from the entanglement of customers.

After finally finishing everything and rushing to the office, Chu Chen found that the guy who was supposed to be waiting here had disappeared, and no one answered his cell phone.

In desperation, Chu Chen had no choice but to send a text message, asking where Han Rui was going.

This time, Han Rui replied to the text message, which said that he and Liu Xin went to a bar on the East Street for a drink, and they would not be able to go back to him until later.

Seeing the word Liu Xin, the corners of Chu Chen's eyes twitched. Just as he was about to get angry, he received a second text message from Han Rui, which only had four words: Wait for me at home.

After receiving these four words, Chu Chen sighed, knowing that Han Rui was telling himself that he was sure he would not get drunk this time, so he could rest assured.

Pressing his forehead with a headache, Chu Chen decided to trust Han Rui once. He checked the time, packed up his things, and took a taxi home.

The taxi stopped at the entrance of the community, Chu Chen got out of the car and walked back slowly, thinking about what to eat tonight while walking.

When he walked downstairs of his house, Chu Chen suddenly saw a familiar figure, and the other party obviously saw him, and immediately raised his hand as a greeting.

"Why are you here?" Surprised, Chu Chen quickly walked up to the man, and saw a woman who was as beautiful as a fairy with long hair reaching the ground behind him, and also saw that the woman had patterns on her forehead that obviously did not belong to humans. He immediately frowned and said, "Why are you carrying such a thing?"

"I can't shake it off, what can I do without her." The man put his hands in his pockets, but he just shrugged helplessly when he heard the words, and then said with a smile: "What's the matter, I came all the way here, you Why don't you invite me to have a good meal? Let me explain first, I have to live with you for a few days, and I don't have any money when I go out, so I can't afford to live in your hotel."
